Book Three of the Dace family saga.Like the phoenix from the ashes, the Dace family have somehow to resurrect their lives, after a cataclysmic event literally shatters their world. But, even in wartime, run-of-the-mill mundanity is far more common than excitement and drama. And so, as her children grow older and the war with Germany drags on, life becomes increasingly unsatisfactory for Clarice Dace. A change of scenery doesn't help either, enforced as it has been by her husband's connivance as much as by dreadful circumstance. And, with Benjamin constantly under her feet and her under his beady eye, she longs for a very different kind of life. But will things ever be different for her, with Bill - her Canadian soldier - so very far away and Benjamin much too close?
